STOP 🛑 ✋ this is a WIP checkpoint! QRP with your current WIP!

I’m actually doing a creative thing these days that isn’t writing or music! Cross-stitching an otter pattern I got off Etsy, with help from mister Eiffel of course.

With the awful news from the last couple hours, this post from the political optimism subreddit helped to break through a bit of the despair fog. Repubs know this is political suicide, ICE's support is crumbling despite the budget increase, and there's a myriad of ways to fight back. Keep strong.

The bill passed. It’s ok to be upset. You’re human. Don’t stop, keep going.

Learn and stay informed. Share things that help people. Stay or get involved locally, state, and country wide if you can. Help each other.

Take time for yourself if you need it. Just don’t stop, keep going.

Survive. Make art. Fight.

Our existence is protest.

Survival and loving and living IS a riot.

Turns out the very territorial blue jay couple that live outside my window did have a nest hidden somewhere! This bedraggled adolescent was in the little (protected) courtyard behind my house when I went out for a walk.

Lovely little wandering garter snake (Thamnophis elegans vagrans; one of three) found on a birding walk this morning! We also found an incredibly docile female bull snake that I didn’t get pics of because I was showing the group how to tell the sex of a snake 🐍

It's #HugYourCatDay! Remember to give your favorite felines a hug today (unless they hate hugs, in which case, just give them more treats! )

Art from HUG? by me. The cat is based off my first cat, Uno.

LRT I haven’t called my reps in a few weeks and I’m out of practice, but I followed the 5calls.org script for the budget reconciliation and added a line about being concerned about the deregulation of AI & how it can cost jobs and lead to the aggressive spread of misinformation.

Please really do call your congressperson, this is…this is a lot
Good lord just what the hell is up today. A potential ban on any regulation for AI for the next 10 years? This includes good bills like AB 412 of legislation protecting folks from Deepfakes! Wtf?! Call your congressmen and women asap to tell them to take this down!
